Forex Training comes in many forms; personal one on one training, self training over the internet, group webinars, spread betting platforms, forex forums and clubs. The problem is that none of the above are regulated by any particular education body, so it is difficult to know if the training you are getting is in fact any good or in some cases relevant at all.
One of the best forms of training is to be taught one on one by a professional trader that can show you a history of success; this training can of cause be very expensive and run into 1000's. The free option of self training from free websites and snippets of information you find around the internet can of course be free but the quality of the information is usually poor.
The truth about forex training is that in some cases the people teaching it don't have a good success rate themselves, even though the systems they teach look good on paper in practice without the right application or experience they will probably fail. Experience is everything in forex trading and without controlling ones emotions can be very difficult.
One of the best forms of training for the forex market is to join a reputable forex club. A forex club combines the experience and knowledge of being coordinated by a forex professional but the cost is divided up amongst its' members. Good forex training clubs may also trade live with its members and the professional together over a webinar using the experience of the professional to put what has been learnt in the classroom into practice.
One thing I always like to suggest is to sign up to a demo account with one of the spread betting platforms before you start. You can still trade in a live environment and take the same risks as if live trading but the money isn't real so it doesn't matter if you make mistakes.
